Here’s how CHK vs SYL panned out in Sylhet:

CHK vs SYL Highlights: Usman Khan slams fifty to set momentum

Chittagong Kings were batting first against Sylhet Strikers, and Usman Khan looked in solid touch. The in-form batter took Tanzim to the cleaners to slam a six on his first delivery and added 53 runs in total off just 35 balls. Khan built a solid 68-run partnership with Graham Clark to set the tone of the Kings’ innings.

The Chittagong Kings’ middle order capitalised on the momentum set by Usman Khan to advance to a big total. Graham Clark punished the Striker's bowling lineup with a quick 60 off 33 balls. Haider Ali added a much-needed finishing touch to slam a quick 42 off just 18 balls. The duo’s carnage steers Kings to a grand total of 203 runs by the end of the first innings. Ruyel Miah was the most expensive bowler, who got hit for 48 runs in his four-over spell.

CHK vs SYL Highlights: Wasim’s double strike jolts Strikers

Chittagong Kings were marred by the pressure of the steep chase. Nabil Samad got the first breakthrough as he removed Paul Stirling on a duck. Mohammad Wasim Jr added to the pressure with two quick wickets. Rony Talukdar gifted his wicket away by slashing a short ball that went straight to wicket-keeper Mithun. 

Next, Wasim trapped Aaron Jones in an LBW dismissal. The batter missed a flick and the ball crashed into his pads. While Jones tried his hand at a review, umpires call on wickets hitting meant that he had to walk back. The Strikers were reduced to 64/4.

CHK vs SYL Highlights: George Munsey-Jaker Ali’s fightback in vain

Wicket-keeper George Munsey fought back for Strikers with a commanding 52 off 37 balls. Jaker Ali also added 47 runs to his team’s total, but time ran out for both batters. The required run rate went over 15, and eventually, Sylhet Strikers fell 30 runs short in the chase to endure an embarrassing defeat. Wasim Jr from the Kings picked three wickets for 25 runs in his match-winning spell.
